On the evening of July 1, 2016, a day before her 36th birthday, Jokisha Brown was shot and killed while sitting in her Mercedes-Benz in a strip mall parking lot on Cheshire Bridge Road in Atlanta, Georgia. She had been at the location to have her makeup done for a birthday celebration. Multiple shots were fired through the front passenger side window; police described the attack as a very vicious murder that appeared to be a targeted hit.

The investigation quickly focused on her ex-boyfriend, Alfredo L. Capote. Three months earlier, in April 2016, Brown had survived a brutal, prolonged assault by Capote that included being raped at gunpoint in front of her teenage son, being kidnapped, and further assault at a hotel in Cobb County. She escaped by jumping from a moving car the next day. Warrants were issued for Capote on charges including rape, aggravated sexual assault, armed robbery, kidnapping, and false imprisonment; he was later arrested in April 2017 in Oil City, Louisiana during an unrelated investigation. He was charged in Gwinnett County for the prior attacks but has never been formally charged in Brown’s murder and the homicide remains an open case.

Does anyone have information about Jokisha’s final hours at the Cheshire Bridge Road parking lot or knew her plans for that birthday celebration?
